Miles can see her pride, can empathize with it, even, and but even so, he raises a warning hand as she pushes the med tech away. "I meant it. You were in surgery for a few hours there. I think my surgeon would be rather annoyed if you tore up all her hard work."

He can see this is hard for her. None of this could have been easy, not their escape, not the battle that had pursued them. He spreads his hands in front of him in an empty-handed gesture of good faith. "In my personal quarters. Not confiscated, don't worry -- but it didn't really have any place in sickbay, and I wanted to make sure it wouldn't get lost."

Not that he doesn't trust the majority of his crew to uphold a code of integrity, but there are always a few shits in the crowd who might make the wrong move.
